Sliding Fee Scale - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Watervliet, MI.

A type of payment help that some alcohol and drug treatment facilities can give to their clients is a sliding fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide help on a case by case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular person. This typically works like this: the person will have to satisfy certain requirements for payment assistance, and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this information admissions admins can determine the cost to the client using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Watervliet earns $18,000 a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and $800 in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even in cases where sliding payment scales are available, people may need to seek additional financial help to pay this discounted amount. Admissions administrators can help clients or family who are paying for rehab apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the individual completes rehabilitation.
